Puppy / Beginner Class is the start of your adventures in training! Get ready to have fun with your dog, learning the basics. Every other 6-week session is a S.T.A.R. Puppy Class. More information about the S.T.A.R. Puppy Class can be found here.
Rally Obedience Class is a stepping stone to the path of competition and also challenges dog and handler. Rally offers dog and handler fun and excitement, moving along a preset course of designated stations. Each station provides instructions for the skill to be performed. Our volunteer instructors are experienced competitors in the Rally ring.

Novice Obedience Class is the first step on the road to competitive obedience. Our volunteer instructors are well-versed in the AKC competition rules and make sure our dog/handler teams are well-prepared the first time they step in the ring at an Obedience Trial. They can’t help with the butterflies, but they’ll make sure you face no surprises in the ring.
